SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES – NEW NORWEGIAN PHOTOGRAPHY

Norwegian photography has undergone rapid development in the new millennium and a new generation of photographers have transgressed the boundary between traditionalists and post-modernists. This is the first time the new trends will be presented in a group exhibition.  Likenesses and differences – New Norwegian Photography takes as its basis the way in which new photographers use series, sequences and  successions of images to develop their projects thematically and formally.

Curator: Jonas Ekeberg
